What type of machine shop are you going too???? Amish????
Would not be that hard to fix with any decent CNC 3 axis mill and some work with a burr after some weld was laid in the hole.............Or a tapered reamer. Honestly, for a combine, I'd lay some weld in it and work on the hole with a die grinder until I was happy with the fit of the new tie rod end, then lock tight it and assemble it tight. I just find it hard to believe a machine shop would turn that down. All of the ones I ever worked at would jump on that, quick money.
